AC Milan clinched three important points against Monza but they failed to keep a clean sheet as the away side scored a great free-kick in the second half. Ciprian Tatarusanu spoke to the media after the 4-1 win.
The Romanian goalkeeper has been quite criticised over the last few weeks for his performances, with a lot of ups and downs. This evening, he got a 6/10 in our player ratings for a few good stops and a nice pass to Brahim Diaz.
After the game, Tatarusanu spoke to DAZN (via MilanNews) and responded to the criticism he has received lately. He was also asked about his relationship with Mike Maignan, who has suffered another injury and will remain out for a while.
On the criticism…
“In football, even for the team as a whole, there will always be positive and negative comments. The best answer is on the pitch and today I showed what I can do.”
On the assist to Brahim…
“It’s the first assist I have given, I’m even happier. With this goal, we unlocked the game and got an important victory.”
On Maignan…
“We have a good relationship between us, we talk after matches and also in training. He was in great shape, I’m sorry.”
As said, Maignan will likely miss the rest of 2023 and that means Tatarusanu will be the starting goalkeeper for the foreseeable future. Hopefully, he will grow and get more comfortable as he gets more playing time.
